Mosquitos on Safari

When is the Mosquito Season in Kenya? Mosquito season in Kenya is most noticeable during and just after the rainy periods. This is from April to June and again in November.  Gut reaction - I am going to ignore those months? Reality -- that is a massive mistake as, mosquitos are far less of an issue on safari than most first-time travellers expect, especially in dry regions like Samburu and the northern conservancies

What are the best walking boots for the Green Season in Kenya? The best walking boots for the Green or Mixed Season in Kenya are not princess leather style boots. They will get ruined. Or riding boots, they are too clunky. Here is a picture of my boots that I wore on my last Safari.

The Insect Myth Buster! Mosquitos and mud will ruin your safari in May and June? Let me be honest with you. In April and May, Samburu. Where we will be in Kenya on Safari is dry. Also, the lack of excess water, compared to the coast, means that mosquitoes are surprisingly minimal. In fact, I went on Safari in Samburu, and never even saw one mosquito!
